POUGHKEEPSIE – The Marist football schedule will feature a record seventh home game at Tenney Stadium this fall. The game against Jacksonville University on Nov. 1, which was originally scheduled to be played in Jacksonville, Fla., has been moved to Poughkeepsie and will be played at Marist. Kickoff time is set for noon.

The move is the result of a scheduling conflict in the Jacksonville area. The change will have no effect on the 2015 game scheduled to be played at Marist.

This marks the first time in the history of the Marist football program that the team will have seven home games in a single season, which is tied for the most in the Football Championship Subdivision this year. The previous record for home contests in a season was six, which has happened eight times, and most recently occurred in 2010.
